Five-star linebacker Baron Browning of Kennedale (Texas) will be suiting up for Ohio State at the next level.

The nation's No. 2 outside linebacker announced he would be playing for the Buckeyes on Thursday night via Twitter. Browning chose Ohio State over Alabama, Florida State, Michigan, TCU and UCLA.
The 6-foot-3, 230-pound senior has racked up 71 tackles, eight pass deflections, four forced fumbles and three sacks this season.

Regarded as the No. 10 overall prospect in the Class of 2017 by 247Sports, Browning will lead Kennedale into the Texas Class 4A Division 1 state quarterfinals tomorrow against Van.
New Ohio State commitment Baron Browning looks to bring down a ballcarrier two weeks ago against Wilmer-Hutchins.
